Chapter 307 Goal
Part 2
However, even though it is a two-story house, the house itself is not that large. It is about the size of Sytry House.
It makes me sad that my last hunt as a Hunter would be in such a small house………… No, in a way, I guess it suits me.
I opened the two doors in turn. The first room seemed to be on one side of the corner and was nothing but a cold room without a single piece of furniture.
Apparently, it is not promising. At least the house doesn’t seem lively at all. I sigh and open the door at the end of the hallway.
It looks like a bedroom. It was a spacious room with a king-size bed. With a *fukafuka* fluffy futon. I did not expect anything, but it seems there is nothing that could change the status quo.
I sigh. I never thought that the last room would be such an empty room――No.
In a way………… Isn’t this a big harvest? Even if I find a weapon, it is not like I can’t beat that thing anyway.
“………… I can only think that God is telling me to go to sleep.” (Cry)
It is often said that a Hunter will not die in bed, but I never thought I would be able to get a bed at the very end. Well, I feel like I have already retired as a Hunter in a way and even if I struggle, there is nothing I can do about it anyway, so let’s take a nap. Besides, I am very tired right now.
Maybe all the events that have happened recently are just bad dreams and when I wake up, everything will be back to normal (Me escaping from reality).
If I had to say, I would have liked to eat and take a shower before going to bed――.
“………… Well, I am not going to ask for luxuries.” (Cry)
Maybe there was a bathroom on the ground floor, but it was already flooded.
I let out a big yawn and pulled the thick comforter over my head with all my strength. When I take off my shoes and put my knee on the bed, I notice something.
……………… Someone was already there?
I rub my eyes and fearfully reach for it. One chunk of body mass hunkering down, rolls to the middle of the bed.
Her pointed ears are visible through the thick, snow-white hair that spreads across the white sheets.
Her exposed brown skin was natural, unlike Liz’s tanned skin, and the atmosphere she had made me feel as if I was looking at a large animal with a calm and relaxed temperament. When I gently touch her exposed skin, I can feel the warmth of the living.
Come to think of it, when I first scouted her, she was also stranded――.
For a moment, I squinted in nostalgia――But I came back to my senses.
“E-Eliza!? It is morning! Come on, wake up!” (Cry)
Wh-Why are you in a place like this――.
*Suyasuya* Sleeping in the bed was 《Lost (Horo)》, Eliza Beck herself, the last member of 《Strange Grief (Nageki no Borei)》.
She is a free spirit in a different sense from Luke and Liz, she is the best my-pace person in 《Strange Grief’s (Nageki no Borei)》. She is a mysterious “Desert Noble (Desert Spirit People)” who I have no idea what she is thinking about and with the habit of getting lost and with no sense of direction. She is a rare member that even I rarely encounter due to our timing rarely matching, but there are not that many Hunters like Eliza, so there is no way I could have mistaken her for someone else.
While confused, I grabbed the pillow and *bofubofu* slapped her head with it. Come to think of it, it all started with a Magic Sword that Eliza brought.
“Come on, Eliza! Wake up, it is your turn up! Don’t occupy my bed!” (Cry)
It is now only up to me to wake Eliza up!
Receiving my attack, Eliza folds her tall body and shrinks further. I don’t know why she is here, but I am desperate here.
Eliza is useless as a person as I am (Although she is not human), but she is a powerful person who has earned an Alias as a Solo Hunter.
Heck, how could you even think of sleeping in a place like this! Geez! Geez Eliza, seriously!
After *bafubafu* banging her head repeatedly, Eliza finally half-opens her eyes and slowly sits up. She looks at me with absentminded eyes.
“……………… Kuu?” (Eliza)
“Yes, you are right, it is me, Kuu!” (Cry)
As always, she is missing the 『R』 and the 『Y』, but I won’t delve into the details. She lives in a more tolerant and wider world in her head. I want to live in her world too!
Eliza looked at me with a vacant expression for a while, but before long she *bofun* collapsed onto the bed as if she was pulled away by gravity.
“Guuh.” (Eliza)
“…………” (Cry)
…… Look at that, Sytry. This is a real *Guuh*! This is how you feign sleep, it is like she is really sleeping, right?
Hitting her any further would probably be useless. Besides, time is short right now.
I have no choice but to grab her long arm that was thrown out and *zuruzuru* drag her from the bed.
Even Eliza should turn on her switches if she faces that curse. I must somehow carry her in front of the enemy……
Maybe it is because she is getting plenty of sleep, Eliza is a Thief like Liz, but she is taller than her. Although she is not as heavy as she looks, it is hard for me, who is powerless, to carry her.
I grabbed her arm and managed to lift her up and get her off the bed. Even though she was being moved so roughly while she was sleeping, Eliza didn’t show any signs of resistance. She has completely entrusted her body to me.
Not only is she tall, but she also isn’t waking up at all despite having her well-developed chest that makes it hard to believe she is one of those goody-two-shoes Spirit People, press against me. Even Liz would be embarrassed by that!
That girl is clearly cursed by something! Now that I think about it, I feel like a curse to become a useless person had been cast on Sytry too. There are too many cursed Members in our Party. Normally I wouldn’t think or say anything, but I am going to say it just now! I am in a pinch, right now!
“Kuu… Kuu…” (Eliza)
Don’t call my name in your sleep!
Carrying Eliza on my back, I step forward after taking one step after another.
I gritted my teeth and declared war on the Cursed Spirit People who was probably still creating mud outside (YOLO).
“Watch this, our Eliza……! Can you stay calm after looking at our Eliza who can sometimes even make Luke stunned!?” (Cry)
What a flash of inspiration! I wonder if her anger will subside by doing something like animal therapy.
TL notes:

Footnotes
Futon: In Japan, it is a thin mattress you use to sleep.Here Cry says Yakekuso which means a state of mind where he loses all rational thoughts and takes a fuck-it, YOLO, I-don’t-give-a-shit-anymore attitude.
